What is the difference between absolute maximum and relative maximum?

Back

An absolute maximum is the highest point over the entire domain of a function, while a relative maximum is the highest point in a specific interval.

Front

What is a relative minimum?

Back

A relative minimum is a point on the graph of a function where the function value is lower than the values of the function at nearby points.

How can you identify the intervals where a function is increasing or decreasing?

Back

To identify intervals of increase or decrease, analyze the first derivative of the function. If the derivative is positive, the function is increasing; if negative, it is decreasing.

What is the purpose of the first derivative test?

Back

The first derivative test is used to determine whether a critical point is a local maximum, local minimum, or neither.
